Electric Window Issue

[Sir Bagalot]

Problem with a rear window not going down. Force it down and then closing isn't an issue.

Take door card off and the problem is basically when going down the plastic part that should be attached to the bottom of the window goes down the guide with no issue but isn't attached to the bottom on the window so therefore doesn't drag the window with it. Push it down and seat it in the guide and it closes fine.

So what should I use to attach the guide to the bottom of the window to make a permie fix?

Normally on the regulator there is a slot into which fits a rubber piece that slips over the bottom of the window keeping it in place & allowing the regulator to open & close the window.

This rubber pad has probably come out perhaps due to additional friction of the window seal rubbers.

Try looking for the pad in the door bottom & consider lubricating the window rubbers with silicone spray to see if that helps it stay in place.

You could also consider when putting the rubber back in place using some PU adhesive between the regulator/rubber/window to help it all stay attached in the future.

Obviously if you do that give it 24 hours to fully cure before opening the window.
